Meet Mr Magoo the fluffy Poitou donkey! This beautifully made plushie stands about 40 cm tall and is semi-posable, meaning that it is able to alter between basic standing and sitting positions. It is made from dark brown fur with a shaggy look, and sports many handsewn markings. It is made in a lifelike style and features many realistic details. The muzzle, for example, has proper nostrils and a slightly opened mouth with a little tongue, that can be tucked away inside it. The feet are just as intricately made, sporting actual hooves with embroidered bottoms and 3D-inserts. Every single one of these tiny details has been assembled by hand. All in all this highly decorative plushie is made from 131 handsewn pieces.
This highly collectible plushie will be created upon order. It will be made in an environment free of cigarette smoke and perfume, but not entierly pet free, as I have cats. As with all the items in my store, this plushie was originally designed and created by me. A lot of time and effort goes into making a detailed plushie like this. Particularly into the head and feet, which contain tiny parts, that are notoriously hard to assemble, but also into sewing all the markings, and carefully trimming the excess fur.
The body will be made from three shades of shaggy faux fur, with a pile length of about 25 mm, with shorter rabbit style fur being used for the eye patch. The mane and tail will be made of mongolian style furs, with a pile length of roughly 70 mm. 5 mm minky will be used for the furry parts of the muzzle and upholstery grade velour for the tongue. The hooves and the insides of the nostrils will be made with synthetic suede, a fabric that is made to resemble brushed leather and has a soft feel to it. The hoof bottoms will be made from a combination of thick felt, faux suede and embroidery, giving them detail and dimension. The plushie will be fitted with 12 mm plastic safety eyes, which are lined with black imitate leather to improve their shape and to make them more lifelike. Plastic joints will also be used to fasten the ears, allowing them to alter position. Foam inserts, plastic and fabric membranes will be added in places to lend shape and stability. The legs will be sealed off from the rest of the body, allowing them to be stuffed firmly enough to carry the weight of the the body, while the rest of the plushie is stuffed more lightly. Plastic beads will be added to the hooves for extra weight.
This artist made plushie is intended for use by teenagers or adults. It is incredibly rare and highly collectible, as it has only been created once up to this point. It is best used for indoors decoration purposes and/or as a photo prop. The quality of the plushie is such, that it is unlikely to break from gentle play or the occational hug, but it is not a toy. It was never created with play or excessive handling in mind, and should be kept away from young children and pets at all times. The plushie can not be washed if it gets dirty, without risking marker bleed-through or quality changes to the fur. The tiny details of the muzzle and feet are also very susceptible to damage.
Creating a detailed plushie like this usually takes me 3-4 weeks, but I might need longer, depending on how busy I am at the time of the order. The finished plushie will be shipped in a sturdy and fully trackable box, using the services of PostNord, GLS or CoolEurope.
Thanks for looking!
